The co-founder of Yuga Labs announced on Twitter that he has been diagnosed with congestive heart failure and is taking a leave of absence.
Some heavy news: a few days ago I was told by my doctor I have congestive heart failure. Symptoms started last year out of the blue and I put off seeking help (like an idiot) so I could keep working. But after testing, my doctor called and asked me to radically change my life. The condition is progressing pretty fast and that means I need to make some serious changes.

Aronow stated that he will continue to serve on Yuga Labs’ board of directors and as a strategic advisor.
What’s next? I’ll stay on as a board member and strategic advisor. My confidence in Yuga’s future and cryptogarga’s leadership are unwavering. Daniel Alegre (dalegre) soon joining only makes me more bullish.

Aronow stated that he had pushed himself well beyond his capabilities on the project, working back-to-back 12-hour days in an effort to seize a second chance at life after battling a chronic disease for the whole of his twenties.
